The Joint Customs Consultative Committee (JCCC) has released the following notice about the Get Customs Data for Import and Export Declarations Service today (26 February).
HMRC are pleased to confirm that the latest version of the Get Customs Data for Import and Export Declarations was released on the 5 February 2026.
What has changed
The latest version addresses concerns about the format of the report as well as other known issues raised by JCCC members and other users.
The update included the following changes:
- 412 order and name changes across the four reports.
- 15 new fields in three reports (detailed in Appendix A).
- Reports are now produced using the date of clearance for their start and end dates instead of date of entry, ensuring alignment with the paid service.
- The imports item report now displays the declaration level country of origin when not specified in the search criteria. This update was also applied to the new added invoice currency, which previously only showed the declaration level currency in old reports.
Planned service update
From 1 April 2026, the service will be updated so that users can run reports that include XI EORI data.
This will close a gap in the service and allow users to see all their EORI data reports through the Get Customs Data for Import and Export Declarations Service.
